Dear Mike,
As far as I know no one showed up with a hunting rifle. My rifle was an SKS, which has a ten round magazine and is therefore illegal for hunting in Arizona (and probably every other state). It is a military rifle. The other rifle was the sniper rifle that was raffled off. I was the only one in fatigues, so probably what wa printed was a distorted version of the truth. I did not attempt to enter the library but merely participated in the demonstration outside.

Thanks for telling me about it!
Yours,
Kevin
